You can try Google Translate, but don't expect miracles.

BTW, what language are you speaking? It sounds like English, but some of your words, like "transilator", are not familiar to me... :lol: :rotfl:

:lol:
Yes, I'm familiar with that language, and I would probably speak it more often if I don't use the spell checker. :lol:

Speaking of the language, I have a question for the English speaking people: how does the posts from us whose native language is not English, look to you? Can you immidietely recognize a "foreigner"?
Do you sometimes find our sentences funny? :lol:

Quite often, unless it's severely broken English, I don't usually notice anything funny. Heck, one time I saw a guy on a forum who's English was so horrible that I was sure that English was his 7th langage or something crazy. He was from New York. :P

Taking your question as an example, it was only after reading your message three times that I noticed that you typed "how does the posts" rather than "how do the posts". :) Even that though, could simply be a typo from a native speaker. Being on the internet so long though, I often don't even notice major typos anymore!

Ah, yes, I guess I answered to my own question. :rotfl:Although I do know when to use do and does, I often tend to mix them up.

What amazes me is how good some 'foreigners' understanding?command of English is.

I think us Brits are often amongst the laziest in the world when it comes to second languages.

I wouldn't blame it on the laziness, but rather on a historical fluke. If Naploeon didn't blew it at Waterloo, we would all speak fluent French. Including Brits. :lol:

I'm kidding, of course. The truth is that you do not need to speak a second language, and most of us do. Because English established itself as an "unofficially official" language of the world, the one that doesn't speak it, is deprived from most sources of information, cannot communicate with people outside his ethnic group, etc.

Besides, how would one play SH3 if he/she doesn't speak English (or German or French)? :lol:

If he was from New York City, English may very well be his 7th language.:rotfl:.

Ferrets isn't a finnish word, silly.
